Or would the frontera bullbar fit the MU?

My reply is a little off topic in this section but I have a 2001 Frontera TJM T1 bullbar stitched on to my MU. Only required custome mounts and a fill plate.

I have a 2002 (from memory) Holden Rodeo winch bar from ARB on my Wizard. Bolted straight on, nearly. Have a look at the pics in the link below.

The Frontera bar is spot on for width but as the Frontera is a bit rounder in the snout, I had a fill plate made to make it look all pretty. Looks good, sits flush with the top surface of the bar. Bought the bar off ebay with a $550 winning bid. Paid him $500 on the day, got a set of Hella driving lights thrown in too. Paid $85 bucks for the polished fill plate (cts). Used the factory bar mounts and restitched them where they had to be, put in some angle and fms for extra strength and there it sat. ;D members.oztralia.com/~federalaffair/frontera bar.jpg[/img] Clicky HERE to see it on the vehicle. It is still under contruction but there is a pic on the front page

hmmm .... yes i fitted the bar myself. i used the factory mounts and changed the shape of the factory mounts to suit and added a bit more steel to them (the factory mounts) for added strength. i then had a metal plate made to fill a gap at the top that i didnt like (nothing structurally wrong, it just looked crappy to me). see reply #4 to this thread.

I got mine off ebay too for a CHEAP $270 for a Rodeo winch Aluminum bullbar, I don't know what model it was but it had "universal mounts" on it, straight bolt on, had Midas fit it for me total cost $400 for bullbar and fitting.
Try maybe TF rodeo model bullbars?
Best eBay buy i have had yet!
